“This is my second visit to Monadnock ER… I am very impressed with the staff, there was no wait each time and took care of my husband right away, both visits during the weekend. Highly recommend Monadnock when you have an emergency! Thank you for doing your job so well especially during times like these.” -Rene

A very impressive place for very important people like you.

When you or someone you love has a medical emergency, you want the best care available. And now that care is available right here in our community, at the new Sarah Hogate Bacon Emergency Services Department at Monadnock Community Hospital.

The MCH emergency room represents an impressive advance in patient care for our community. In addition to increased capacity, we can now offer patients more privacy. More lifesaving technology. And faster admissions. Everything that our community – and you — deserve.

When Alexys L.’s baby was sick, she turned to MCH emergency medicine and Dr. Joel Herrington. She says, “Dr. Herrington went above and beyond to help with my 8-month-old baby girl. He was compassionate and caring, thorough and attentive. He is what doctors should strive to be like. He took his time, he was thoughtful, mindful, and overall cared about the wellbeing of his patient. He didn’t treat her like a number to get out the door; he wanted to help her and truly find the cause of what was going on.”

Greeted and cared for the moment you arrive

Coming to the emergency room can be very stressful for patients and families. We understand. That’s why, when you arrive at our new emergency room you will be greeted and cared for immediately upon your arrival – and with our new bedside check-in we’ll get you admitted as soon as possible.

The doctor is IN … 24 hours a day

You should never have to wait to see an emergency room doctor – and at MCH, you won’t. We offer 24-hour physician coverage to ensure that all of our patients get the expert diagnoses and care they need.

Beautiful patient rooms, waiting areas and offices

A great emergency room should be as comfortable and private as possible, and ours fits the bill, with private patient rooms, tastefully decorated waiting rooms and family areas, a beautifully efficient nurses’ station – even a specially dedicated office space for EMTs to write reports.

We’re here for you

You may never need to visit our new emergency room…and we hope you don’t. But if you do, isn’t it nice to know that the advanced care you need is right here in our community, 24/7?

With a little help from our friends

The Sarah Hogate Bacon Emergency Services Department (ED) at MCH could not have been built without the generous support of our community.

A Google review had this to say about the Monadnock Community Hospital Emergency Department: “Had to go in the ER for a procedure a couple days ago. I had the best caregiver, named Lauren. She was the sweetest person and made me feel comfortable about everything. Fixed me all up within 3 days!! Best experience I have had there by far.”

If you ever need emergency care, we are here to deliver the best experience possible.

Joshua D. from Keene, New Hampshire has this to say about Monadnock Community Hospital: “Highly recommend this hospital! I’ve been coming here for years for myself and my children. The staff is amazing and always accommodating and professional. I’ve been hospitalized here twice this year due to covid and now cardiac problems. I’ve been to the ER multiple times and participate in cardiac rehab here. The staff in every department I’ve dealt with is always phenomenal! I couldn’t be more thankful for the care myself and my family have received here.”

We’re always here for Joshua and his family—and when you need care, we’re here for you, too.
